There are two alternative methods for determining
the LaCie Ethernet Disk mini’s IP address: Obtain
Configuration From DHCP Server or Configure
Manually (Fig. 5.4.1.A.).
Obtain Configuration From DHCP Server
This method is used when the LaCie Ethernet Disk
mini is connected to a DHCP enabled network with a
DHCP server. In this case, the server automatically as-
signs the IP address for the LaCie Ethernet Disk mini.
Configure Manually
This method is used when the LaCie Ethernet Disk
mini is connected to a non-DHCP enabled network.
In this case, you will need to manually assign the cor-
rect network settings for your LaCie Ethernet Disk mini.
Please refer to your network administrator for more in-
formation about your network and which parameters you
should use. For more information, refer to chapter 3.6.,
